Hi friends!
It's time for a new challenge at The House that Stamps Built! Our challenge for this week is 'Outdoor Fun'.
This challenge called for a retirement card! Can't you just imagine a new retiree sitting in his adirondack chair under this tree?
Here's what I made:
I found a gorgeous piece of patterned paper, and added a strip of gold dotted Washi tape. It was then adhered to the white card base. The sentiment and image were stamped on another coordinating piece of cardstock with brown Memento ink, matted in white, and popped up on the base with dimensional foam squares. I like how this one turned out!
I used these Repeat Impressions' stamps:

Love this - and the design paper is beautiful and perfect for this stamp. But let me clue you in - being retied does not mean sitting outside in a chair, I am busier now than when I worked.
Gorgeous card, great use of patterned paper and perfect image for a retirement card Pattie!
What a fantastic card Patti! The papers you've picked work beautifully with your image and I love the colors as it's starting to slowing turn into those brilliant Fall colors! Great retirement card friend! HUGS
What a lovely relaxing card - perfect for a retirement card. Love the pattern paper.
Beautiful tree card design and great pattern paper used.
This is beautiful!! Your paper is gorgeous and and it goes with your image so perfectly! Awesome retirement card!
Love the peaceful scene on your card--perfect for a new retiree. But don't tell the recipient that we're often busier in retirement! Love the DSP you used, too. Those tree images add to the peaceful scene.
Wish I was at that age to be sitting under that tree relaxing! Fun card.
Beautiful and serine for that retiree! Wonderful work Patti.
That is a perfect retirement card, Patt. Lovely image and yes - your paper is gorgeous!
